Voltage compensation

i.

Temperature Compensation

The temperature compensation setting enables the charge voltage temperature compensation coefficient to be
configured, or temperature compensation to be totally disabled (such as for Li-ion batteries). The temperature
compensation coefficient is specified in mV/°C and applies to the entire battery/battery bank (not per battery cell).

e.

Battery limits

i.

Low temperature cut-off

The low temperature cut-off setting disables charging in low temperature conditions to protect Lithium batteries from
damage; this setting requires battery temperature to be provided by a compatible device via the VE.Smart network.
